by nancyparkmanIt is once again ground loot, meaning that players can acquire it on the map and is no longer relegated to care packages. Having your Devotion equipped with a turbocharger makes the thing close to unstoppable as it ramps up in a hurry and will shoot with 900 RPM lasers when at full veloc
Season 6 saw the introduction of the new Legend named Rampart, but just how powerful is she? Keeping a multiplayer game fresh is important and the best way to do that is to shake up which characters are the most powerful in any given season. It’s time to look at who has risen to the top in Season 6 of Apex Legen
Lifeline is still to this day arguably the best support Legend in all of Apex Legends , and her recent buffs only add to that case. She can now dual-revive via a new mechanic, which in the right hands can swing entire team fights if done accordingly. Lifeline can now also grab tons of extra loot as 20% of all supply bins will be blue. She’s fallen out of popularity simply because healing supports are never the most interesting or entertaining, but she still has a case for herself and thankfully hasn’t been nerfed into obscur
It’s no surprise or coincidence that new characters in games with expanding rosters often enter the mix in a pretty powerful state. Rampart is no different and her passive and abilities place her near the top when looking at the tier list for Legends in Season 6. The update for the season made it so light machine guns are favored in the meta and should be the primary weapon of choice. Rampart’s passive helps her reload faster and gives her extra bullets, which are crucial in a meta centered on guns that reload slowly and carry a large magaz
Do you remember the days when the Mastiff was a care package weapon you dreamed about wielding? In seasons since it has become a weapon obtainable via ground loot and thousands of players have been able to experience just how powerful it is. Since moving to be a ground loot item it did see a reduction in overall damage, but it didn’t hamper its effectiveness. The great thing about it being ground loot is that it sports some of the nicest iron sights in the entire game, Overwatch Phreaks making the need for a sight attachment insignific
The Peacekeeper, sadly, is now a care package weapon in Season 6. This means that it’s a little bit rarer to wield from game to game, but it’s still as powerful as ever. When calculating where weapons fall in a tier-based list it’s important to factor in how easily obtainable a weapon is. It’s useless if a weapon is meta-breaking if it can only be used in very select instances. It comes with 15 special shotgun shells, but with the power the Peacekeeper is packing, that’s going to be more than enough to dismantle your f
Revenant seems like a complicated character at first, but ultimately his skills are pretty simple and you can make good use of them with very little effort, whether you want to be a hardcore damage-dealing champion or a faithful comrade that supports from the sideli
If you’re waiting on a team to burst out of a door and rampage, or an enemy team is about to get stuck in a building because of the closing ring, throw the silence projectiles at the doorways to block their exit. Even when it comes to an enemy team moving away from you in retreat, shoot projectiles at doorways or generally in the direction they’re moving – do this regularly and that tiny bit of damage from the projectile will eventually get you a kill or two, I guarantee
It’s fine when games aim for realism, but that should never come at the expense of having fun. As rational as the concept of fall damage is, it never translates to anything meaningful in a gaming experience. Even FromSoftware – the master of having your character die as a result of irritating fall damage – eventually saw the error of its ways and made Sekiro, a game where you jump around like a samurai sword-wielding Ma
The Silence ability is certainly one that deserves more use by Revenant players online. It recharges fast, so there’s no reason not to use it whenever you see enemies, but it can also make for a fascinating way to block off your opponent’s paths. This is literal in the case of Pathfinder and Horizon , who thrive on the ability to escape the battlefield quickly and easily, but also counts for situational encount
The Flatline was once considered to easily be the best assault rifle in the game, but the vaulting of the Anvil Receiver attachment took it down a notch. The difference between the Flatline and the Carbine comes down to preference, though the Flatline lacks the Carbine’s accuracy and long-range effectiveness. It makes up for it though with solid damage output across the board and significantly favorable ammo depletion. A level 3 magazine on the Flatline results in it dealing 40 damage per heads
